Print developing: I always measure the time when the first gray tones begin to apperar. I take the 6-fold of that time, always. This gives fairly even results and compensates coolling/warming of the solution and higher bromide level as well.

Things went much better last night. I'm going to chalk this up to a aperture error. I made sure I was set at f8 and had the multigrade filter flipped on and was consistently getting 30ish second exposure times after running a test strip. Some highlights had to burn in longer etc, but I had no drastic jumps or prints that came out blank.
